PURCHASE, N.Y., April 7, 2026 — Dirty Mountain Dew™ is officially on shelves. The first-of-its-kind dirty soda-inspired drink from Mountain Dew is available now at retailers nationwide in 20 oz. single bottles and 12-pack 12 oz. cans, alongside Dirty Mountain Dew™ Zero Sugar. No syrup, no custom recipe required – just Mountain Dew, done dirty.
A distinctively Mountain Dew take on the dirty soda moment
Dirty Mountain Dew reimagines the dirty soda space through a distinctively Mountain Dew lens. The brand’s iconic citrus foundation meets a satisfyingly smooth, creamy finish – bright, bold, and refreshing straight from the can. Dirty Dew brings that indulgent, creamy profile into a modern format without the setup or the wait.
Meeting the demand where it’s growing
The dirty soda trend – built on flavored syrups, cream, and customization – has grown from a regional phenomenon into one of the defining consumer beverage movements of recent years. Searches for “dirty soda” on Yelp have surged more than 600% year over year1, underscoring the scale of consumer curiosity. Mountain Dew is scaling it. By translating a made-to-order experience into a ready-to-drink format at major retailers, Dirty Mountain Dew answers the growing consumer appetite for indulgent options without the friction.
This launch extends the track record of Mountain Dew by defining flavor moments – from the cultural staying power of Mountain Dew® Code Red® to the fanbase that made Mountain Dew® Baja Blast® an icon beyond its original home. Dirty Mountain Dew™ is the next chapter: a flavor built for where consumers are right now.
"Mountain Dew has always led where flavor goes next, and dirty soda is exactly that moment," said Michael Smith, VP of Marketing for Mountain Dew, PepsiCo Beverages U.S. "Dirty Mountain Dew takes our iconic citrus flavor and makes it bold and refreshing in a whole new way – a bold, creamy ready-to-drink experience that's exactly what Dew fans have been waiting for."
